Website Relaunch
Over the past few months, weโve been working hard on a brand new infrastructure. While it looks familiar, much of it has been rebuilt inside.
What has improved?
+ Reliability: The new foundation is more resilient to peak traffic
+ Responsiveness: Windfinder runs smoothly across all devices
+ Consistency: Everything now looks clearer and more consistent
+ Data Services: Simplified weather data services
+ Focus: Moving forward, it will be much easier to bring new features to Windfinder
In short: Weโve optimized the equipment so you can focus 100% on the wind.
New Technical Foundations
From the beginning, our priorities for the relaunch were reliability, speed, and most importantly, a completely seamless transition. Windfinder.com serves forecasts and reports for tens of thousands of spots and locations around the world, updated at least four times per day. Millions of visitors rely on the uninterrupted availability of these forecasts every day. After careful consideration, we chose Astro as the foundational framework. Astro shines when it comes to serving content-heavy websites where speed and stability are non-negotiable. For the interactive and dynamic elements of our website, we opted for React, the current go-to standard.
Design for Clarity
Weโve carefully refined our user interface. Youโll notice a more modern, cleaner layout. Usability has always been our priority. Give it a try and let us know if anything feels unexpected!
Data Services & Weather Widgets
Weโve simplified our data services and widget configurators. With a smoother UI and more efficient transactions, accessing the weather data you need for your projects is easier than ever.
A Look Ahead
The past months have been dedicated to building a solid and flexible setup. This enables us to develop faster and more reliably, like an infrastructure for connected experiences with Windfinder as a platform. A win-win for all Windfinder users and the whole development team.
